COLUMBUS, Ohio—White House candidate Rick Santorum on Saturday questioned President Barack Obama's Christian values and attacked GOP rival Mitt Romney's Olympics leadership as he courted tea party activists and evangelical voters in Ohio, "ground zero" in the 2012 nomination fight. Santorum, a former Pennsylvania senator known for his social conservative policies, said that Obama's ag...

Sanrorum should question his own Christian beliefs and worry about himself......Religion should never be a part of politics..... Santorum shouldn't cast stones... Or did religion not teach him that.....

If he was really worried about Obama's faith, I would think he'd be busy praying for our President instead of using it as a platform to reach the evangelicals....this guy is kinda scary. Palin was at least a bit lovable.

In the 1970s Christianity was added as a litmus test of being a good Republican. Barry Goldwater warned against it, but his voice was muted.

Today, we find conservatives questioning the religious values of everyone else, but their own.

You're casting stones. Hypocrite.

I'm not a Christian..... Why should I be worried about speaking the truth.... People should worry about themselves and what they believe in....

It's ironic that 52 years ago JFK was obliged to publicly promise that his Roman Catholic faith would have no bearing on his policies as president. In today's mad political world of the Right, Rick Santorum proudly makes clear that he would slavishly toe the pope's doctrinal line as president.

This is a frightening prospect for all men who aren't conservative Catholics and for all women, period. The Christian Right knows no bounds if allowed to assume power. We can already see the overreach in the Tea Party-dominated House of Representatives and the Catholic-dominated U.S. Supreme Court. Christian Taliban mullah Rick Santorum would be a disaster as president.

Got a reference for that?

Every single time Santorum opens his idiotic, sanctimonious mouth, I rejoice, because he is only digging a deeper and deeper hole for himself. It is astounding to realize he has gotten as far as he has in this race spouting the ridiculously silly, bigoted and archaic things he has. My current favorite is his contending that the American president should be pushing an agenda based on theology of the Bible. Oh, really? Because not all Americans revere the Bible. Plenty of people don't believe in it whatsover and do not wish it to be the basis of their nation's government. And the US Constitution specifcally states that government cannot favor one (or any) religion, therefore requiring separation between church and state. So apparently, Santorum has no use for our Constitution? Oh my golly, that man is a raging moron. I am flabbergasted, I really am! I hope he keeps it up. I feel confident he will. He's so full of his own self-righteousness, he is likely powerless to stop himself.

Is Rick Santorum a communist or socialist or something? Who does he think he is, questioning someone else's religious beliefs? We all have freedom of mind, thought, beliefs. Rick Santorum has no right to question or persecute others, for their beliefs. His beliefs are not superior to President Obama's, yours or my thoughts and beliefs.

I'll tell who he is, Warren. Someone who can read.

O-failure has published a book with his beliefs in it. Pretty undisputable. He states clearly that if there is ever a conflict between muslims and christians, he will side with the muslims.

He is pretending to be christian for political purposes. Of course, when you recall O-failure's written words, words that were pondered, revised, and edited for perfect conveyance of intent, you are branded as attacking. Nope, just able to read.

Santorum isn't persecuting anyone. That is a hysterical exaggeration on your part. He is stating the obvious based on the clearly written words of the person he is discussing.

I won't be told, I have a supernatural offer for you, and you can be redeemed if you believe just in me, and if you don't like it you can be tortured forever. I won't be talked to like that. That is the language of fascism and dictatorship. -Hitchens

Sanatarium is such a political degenerate that he's beyond absurd. To have this sanctimonious a-s running our government would be the height of folly, but seeing the number of those who voted for Dubya twice, it's not impossible.
